Welcome to another episode of the Doomloop Dispatch, the news show covering the worst parts of the San Francisco Bay Area. On this episode, Kevin talks with Lydia Bransten, the executive director of the Gubbio Project. Using the strategy of harm reduction to help drug addicts in San Francisco’s Mission District, her org provides a safe space and other necessities like clothes and healthcare. On the podcast we get into her history, her views on drug rehabilitation and what it’s been like to run the Gubbio Project as it faces intense scrutiny from right wingers in the city.
